Little Gray stared in utter amazement at the enormous fish its boss had caught.

The salmon it had gnawed down to nothing but bones fell from its paws, yet it did not even notice.

The group of Seals in the distance also saw the massive northern pike being dragged up.

They looked at one another.

Fishing and catching shrimp were clearly their specialties, so what was going on with this Arctic Wolf before them?

Its haul was far better than theirs.

The Seals' sharp, drawn-out cries rose and fell.

Their piercing calls carried a trace of astonishment.

As for Su Lin,

after thoroughly killing the enormous northern pike, he shook the water droplets from his fur.

He then glanced at the seals. He was quite tempted by seal meat as well.

However, Seals were fairly intelligent and highly vigilant.

The moment they encountered danger, they would dive straight into the sea.

They were not easy to hunt,

so he merely looked at them before withdrawing his gaze.

Seeing Little Gray still standing there, staring blankly at the huge northern pike, he walked over and smacked it awake with one claw.

"Awoo!"

Su Lin gave a low growl, telling Little Gray to drag the northern pike back to the cave.

The northern pike looked large, but it was not as heavy as imagined.

It weighed roughly eighty or ninety pounds.

At its current strength, Little Gray could drag that much with ease.

Furthermore, the northern pike's scales were smooth and slick, creating very little friction against the snow and ice.

With Little Gray's strength, even sprinting across the ice while dragging the northern pike would not be a problem.

Having been rewarded with a claw strike, Little Gray finally snapped out of its stunned state.

Yet its wolf eyes were still filled with shock.

It walked up to the northern pike and began yelping.

Su Lin signaled for it to get to work.

After all, Polar Bears often appeared around this ice sheet.

"Awoo!"

Little Gray gave a low howl and obediently followed its boss's instructions.

It immediately got moving.

First, it tried biting the fish's tail.

But the tail was too slick, and it missed several times.

It then ran to the fish's body, only to discover that it could not find anywhere to bite there either.

Growing anxious, Little Gray began circling the northern pike.

Seeing this, Su Lin could not help sighing.

He gave a low growl, signaling for Little Gray to bite the pike's lower jaw.

The lower jaw had no scales, and a bloody gash had been torn into it.

It could be gripped easily.

But even though Su Lin had shown Little Gray how to do it, the foolish fellow still had to try several times before finally getting a hold of it.

Once it had clamped down, it took off excitedly.

Dragging the northern pike across the ice sheet was effortless, and Little Gray had covered quite a distance in no time.

Su Lin also picked up an arctic salmon from the ground and started heading back toward the cave.

Su Lin was much faster than Little Gray and soon passed it.

However,

As he was about to leave the ice layer, Su Lin's extremely sharp sixth sense

suddenly sent him an intensely dangerous warning.

Ever since Su Lin had broken through to Level 6,

this was the first time he had felt such a powerful sense of danger.

He stopped immediately and stood still.

Just as Little Gray was about to run off in excitement, Su Lin stopped it with a glance over his shoulder.

Little Gray immediately sensed something as well and uneasily looked around.

Very soon,

Su Lin saw a massive opening in the ice layer ahead. A huge adult male polar bear with a ferocious aura climbed out through it.

It was dragging a beluga whale over three meters long in its jaws.

After climbing out, the polar bear flung the beluga whale's corpse onto the ice sheet. Bang! The heavy carcass shook the ice, sending countless chunks of ice flying.

His entire body was covered in a bloody mixture of seawater and blood, nearly obscuring the color of his original fur.

Having just gone through a fierce battle, it panted heavily.

"Huff! Huff!"

The breath it exhaled in the Frigid Arctic air

Turned Into wisps of vapor that drifted into the sky.

For a moment,

against the backdrop of the beluga whale's blood,

the polar bear's fierce and savage presence surged wildly.

Little Gray was so suppressed by that aura that it did not dare move, standing there trembling.

As if it were an innate suppression between species.

Within the Arctic Circle,

Polar Bears had ruled as overlords for countless years and had almost no opponents.

They had no natural enemies either! What often buried them were bloody battles among their own kind and the cruel natural environment.

And the polar bear in front of him was one capable of hunting whales alone!

Even though it was among Polar Bears, it was still an undisputed powerhouse.

At this moment, the polar bear, radiating a savage aura from his entire body, noticed Su Lin and Little Gray as well.

It rose onto its hind legs, reaching nearly three meters in height.

Its eyes watched these two Arctic Wolves that had somehow arrived on the ice sheet. Su Lin narrowed his wolf eyes and looked back at the polar bear.

With a thought, the polar bear's attributes appeared before him.

Species: Polar bear (Male). Level: 16. Vitality: 2651. Stamina: 173. Strength: 169. Defense: 167. Speed: 69.

Strong! Extremely strong!

When Su Lin saw the polar bear's attributes, he could not help but marvel.

No wonder he had felt such an intense sense of danger earlier.

This polar bear's strength

was worlds apart from the grizzly bear he had hunted some time ago.

Worthy of being the recognized Arctic Overlord.

It could go ashore and enter the sea.

Its stamina, strength, and defense Could Be Called invincible.

Its brute force made it unstoppable on land, while in the sea, it could even hunt Beluga Whales.

It was simply blessed by nature.

Beneath the beautiful aurora,

The polar bear's gaze met Su Lin's wolf eyes, which gleamed green, for a long time.

But clearly, the polar bear had expended a great deal of energy hunting a beluga whale today.

Besides, it had also noticed the northern pike Su Lin and Little Gray had caught.

Its simple intelligence told it that these two Arctic Wolves had not come for it.

Therefore, it did nothing. It merely withdrew its gaze and lay atop the beluga whale's corpse,

devouring the whale's fat to replenish its energy.

Su Lin also let out a breath of relief.

He signaled for Little Gray to drag the northern pike away first.

Only at its boss's signal did Little Gray force its trembling body to move, slowly leaving with the northern pike in its jaws.

But after going some distance, it became worried about its boss and looked back.

It saw only its boss walking over at an unhurried pace.

Su Lin did not sprint away as though fleeing.

On one hand, his speed was more than enough to leave the polar bear behind. However, in nature, one should not easily show fear.

Otherwise, it could easily stir up the other party's urge to hunt.

After Su Lin walked over, he gave Little Gray, which was standing there, another claw strike.

He signaled for it to hurry and take the northern pike back to the cave.

Only then did Little Gray regain its usual foolish demeanor. With the pike in its jaws, it took off at a run.
